Somehow I missed Amy’s post at Splendor In the Ordinary last week about how she and her family decorate their home for Lent.
Amy also has a post on Children’s books for Lent, and a lovely reflection and testimony about attending Ash Wednesday services with small children: Worshipping with Little Children.
Also on the family front, I’ve been remiss in not linking Jessica’s Homemaking through the church year blog. (Not being a mom, it’s a blog I don’t visit so often…, but it is excellent.) You can find all of her Lent posts here. Her Lenten posts so far this year have primarily focused on fasting as a family, including a ton of meatless recipes for Lent
Finally today, while looking for something else online, I came across an excellent blog Catechist’s Journey with ideas for Sunday School lessons for Lent – but many of these could also be used by families at home. This looks like a truly WONDERFUL site. I think I’m going to add it to our sidebar… Hie thee hence!
Check out the following entries:

Don’t forget you can find all our posts on Lent resources for family and children here.
